Subject: Re: Adjusting front end suspension height
My manual said the same. I then measured from the bottom of the lower
control arm directly below the adjuster nut plate and found the measurement to
be closer to spec. Following the manual I had the lower control arm resting on
the bumper pads.
Figured
it is a good idea to record before dimensions of my ’62 wagon front end
before tearing into it. Going by the service manual, is it saying
to measure from the lowest point on the torsion bar adjuster nut
plate??
Because
measuring from the floor to there, and subtracting the measurement from
the floor to the lowest point on the outer tie-rod, does not get
anything close to the 1 ¾” specified. More like 4”..... She
will be quite the low rider if I set it to 1 ¾”.
I
also recorded as is measurements to the wheel well openings at the
center-line of the wheels, she does list a bit to the starboard
side. Goes along with the boat like ride. ;
